Cold hands, warm heart?
It has been a cold old week, and I confess I have been feeling it. Hardier types from more extreme climes will mock, but it truly has been rather chilly. (4 degrees C this morning, and marginally cooler yesterday, though it climbs to 16/17 degrees during the day.)
However, today I think I stumbled on a simple solution to beat the chill.
It is this. Have a glass of red wine at lunchtime. I met a friend I hadn't seen in an age, intending to have a coffee; but I was persuaded into some merlot.
vissy was amused at my reddish hue on my return, but with the wine (and a small cup of chicken and sweet corn soup), my toes stayed warm and toasty for hours and hours! Mmmmm.

And in honour of our city's much maligned, upside down Yarra River,
have a look at who came to play recently!
